sophiaserpentiaIf you click no other link today, you absolutely must (or at least should) go here and watch the video (in three parts) of Stephen Colbert speaking truthiness to power directly at the White House Correspondents' Dinner.
This took real nerve.
Edit. And in case you were wondering how much the mainstream media kisses up to the administration, see what it has to say about Stephen Colbert's performance. Look for a while; you will be lucky to find it even mentioned. Bloggers at the Huffington Post have been writing about the MSM's total whitewash of Colbert's speech here and here.
Edit-edit. This video might be difficult to watch, but in case you're inclined to feel sorry for President Bush after watching this, keep in mind that it was at this event last year that Bush lampooned the non-existence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq by going around the room and looking under tables for them.
